The hotel

Buckland is home to some of the best restaurants, shopping, art galleries and nightlife in Atlanta, an is one of the most affluent and trendy communities in the area. If this sound like you're kind of vibe, then the newly renovated, sophisticated Whitley hotel puts you in a great location to explore all of this. If you're staying on a Saturday, we highly recommend trying out 'Tipsy Tea' at the Trade Root restaurant within the hotel, where you can try gin infused teas alongside your classic finger sandwiches and teatime bakes. The restaurant and lounge is great at any time of day though, and you can even enjoy some live jazz music whilst sipping on a cocktail on select evenings. When you're not enjoying the food and drink on offer, book a treatment in the spa or relax in the sauna. And if you really want to make the most of the hotel's facilities, upgrade to a club room to enjoy the additional benefits of the lounge - hors d'oeuvres and wine in the evening?! That's a yes from us.

She remembered my beverage and went over and beyond to make my visit as if it were my first time. The Whitley is classy and never disappoints. Read less

What an amazing hotel experience!!!! The staff was so pleasant and extremely helpful! From the moment we drove up we were greeted like royalty by the valet and bellman. Morris at the front desk was more than welcoming and such a fun personality! Shonta was such a polite, personable and more than attentive manager! The hotel is lucky to have her along with her amazing staff. Lunch at the bar with Chris was such a pleasure! Now he has got a fun personality! Our dinner at the bar with Tsegaye was the cherry on top of our phenomenal experience. He makes the best old-fashioned's I've ever had! Both Tsegaye and Chris made my husband, and I feel like we were "regulars" even though we weren't. If you're ever looking for a luxurious experience in Buckhead with amazing service from the entire staff, visit The Whitley! Simply marvelous! Read less

I’ve stayed here before but this is the first time since it was remolded a few years ago. Checkin was easy and pleasant. The staff was very nice. The room was clean. The bathroom had a few stray hairs stuck on the toilet and on the in-house shampoo squirt bottle (and I don’t mean the hairs off someone’s head). We (my wife and I) had a great sleep.… Read more
I’ve stayed here before but this is the first time since it was remolded a few years ago. Checkin was easy and pleasant. The staff was very nice. The room was clean. The bathroom had a few stray hairs stuck on the toilet and on the in-house shampoo squirt bottle (and I don’t mean the hairs off someone’s head). We (my wife and I) had a great sleep. The hotel itself was very quiet so there was no noises coming from the hall, or people slamming doors. Outside the hotel was noisy at times with sirens and loud cars but that’s nothing the hotel can control. We had breakfast in the morning and it was good. Wasn’t worth $30+ a person but still good nonetheless. This is a nice hotel but I wouldn’t necessarily call it a “luxury” hotel. If you stay there know that parking is not free. You can do valet and I think that’s $50 or you can park yourself for $35. I’d definitely recommend this hotel to others and I’d be happy to stay there again. Read less
